Dating with multiple sclerosis part 2

Dating with multiple sclerosis part 2

Did I ever make a post for part one? Not even sure. But I know I’ve had a lot of posts about dating and here’s another one. I’m going on a date today actually in a couple hours but this one I’m looking forward to.  This is a gentleman from match.com. He actually reminds me of a good friend of mine that I met on match.com probably nine years ago already. We went on one date to a Paul McCartney…

My letter to Multiple Sclerosis

My letter to Multiple Sclerosis

Dear Multiple Sclerosis, It’s been 18+ years you’ve been in my life. Your like that negative friend I can’t break away from. I’ve written this letter to you before but my life coach has asked me to revisit it because she feels that maybe I wasn’t fully honest in that letter. You see I try to put up a brave face. When the diagnosis came people were devastated around me and I felt I needed to be strong. It wasn’t…

What is MS?

What is MS?

I remember 18+ years ago being at that neurologist office when my entire left side of my body wasn’t functioning. I couldn’t really walk, I had muscle atrophy, numbness, weakness and gait difficulty. The doctor asked if anyone else in my family had MS. He knew before the MRI was even done. I sat crying in a chair as my mom leaned in front of me and said “everything was going to be ok”. We got in the car to…

Hallelujah open the windows the summer is over

Sorry all you beach bums but I’m a a fall weather girl. I love the crisp air, leaves changing color, Halloween, thanksgiving, my birthday and my oversized yummy sweatshirts. I love the smell of cinnamon and apples, pumpkin picking, hay rides and pies.  There is nothing about the fall I don’t love. This is my time of year always has been. I just have so many good memories of this time of year. My favorite picture of my daughter was…

What a difference a day makes….

OK in my case maybe it’s two days. Yesterday I decided it’s time to put the sadness behind me I put my braces in my sneakers, I put my foot in the sneakers, I tied up my sneakers and I walked out the door. I drove with the braces which was a little difficult but maybe it will take more time or maybe I can’t drive with the braces haven’t decided that one yet. I got to my destination and…

Replacing my fears with the beginning of love

Replacing my fears with the beginning of love

The concept of love replacing fear is a major lesson in a course in miracles. It seems easy enough in some parts of my life but it is increasingly harder in other parts.  First is my fear over money. I’m always worried about being able to pay me bills. This is one area that my life coach and I have been working on for a while. I’m trying to retrain my thoughts, manifest abundance and think everyday without the fear….

A week in the life of Multiple Sclerosis

A week in the life of Multiple Sclerosis

A week in my MS world. I already had my rant of distress this week. So far the week has been better but it’s Thursday and I still have a lot going on.  If you have MS maybe you’ve heard of the studies of biotin in high dosages that seem to help people with more progressive stages of the disease.  This study which was done in the US is still small but larger ones have been done in other countries….
